There are so many wonderful things to see and do in Palermo, and it's not always easy to find them on your own. So if you're an independent traveler with one day or even only part of a day to see Palermo, a great way to get around is the classic red London-style double-decker bus. Since your ticket is valid for 24 hours, you can get on and off as much as you want. From the unforgettable cathedral to the royal palace, from the colorful Capo street market to the many exquisite gardens, from the exotic Zisa castle to the fascinating archeological museum, the glories of Palermo can easily fill an entire day, and the Hop On-Hop Off Bus makes navigating them so much easier. There are 16 stops through the city, and if you purchase your ticket online, you can board the bus at any of them. On board, your hostess will give you disposable earphones for an audio guide in 8 languages (Italian, English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese and Russian).
All buses are wheelchair accessible.
Tickets become valid when you board the first bus. They cost 20 Euro/adult; 10 Euro/child 5-15 years old; accompanied children 0-4 years old ride free of charge.
